Instructional Learning Disabilities
Module four of this class provided some excellent information regarding how to assist students with learning disabilities be successful. One statement in particular greatly resonated with me: "Try to capitalize on the big three that your students bring to class: their abilities, experiences, and motivation. These along with modifications you make in sharing the course content and competencies will help you to meet their learning needs. An added benefit of these efforts will be that your other students will profit from your instructional delivery as well."

yes, tapping into these areas can help us in identifying specific ways that we can be the most helpful to our students.
